SUMMARY:Red Dress Day 2025
DESCRIPTION:The Ottawa Aboriginal Coalition invites all community members to our annual Red Dress Day Gathering. This event honours the National Day of Awareness for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls (MMIWG) and brings the community together in remembrance and advocacy. The gathering will feature educational displays\, art installations\, commemorative activities\, and creative projects to foster healing and unity. \nThe official program (12:00pm-1:30pm) will begin with a Call to Come Together by the Ottawa River Singers and an opening prayer from OAC Elders. From there\, we’ll hear welcome remarks and take time to recognize the important healing work happening in our community\, especially around the Inuit VAW Shelter and Family Healing Lodge initiatives. The program includes cultural performances\, a Jingle Dress ceremony\, and the honouring of Karen Green with a scholarship announcement and blanket ceremony. We’ll close the event with an Honour Song from the Hand Drumming Group. \n
